Blurb

For a long time, it seemed perfectly clear what musical theater was and where it should take place: on a stage with an audience sitting (or standing) in front of it. This mode has fallen apart in the 21st century at the latest. Everything that is composed, designed and developed scenically takes place in a wide variety of spaces and situations - the dispositives have become part of the compositional process. Whether peep-box and frontal situation, technological media mix, urban space staging or participative performance, the question of which perspectives the audience can develop where in the action has become the essential aspect of all these events.

But what happens next? What could the future of music theater look like? And what will the music theater of the future look like? What challenges, questions and hopes are there? For the SCHNEE VON MORGEN, Marion Hirte, Daniel Ott, Manos Tsangaris and Malte Ubenauf (management team of the Munich Biennale - Festival for New Music Theater from 2016-2024) asked very different players to make statements about the future of music theater. The comments and predictions of artists and researchers such as Brigitta Muntendorf, Alexander Kluge, Stefan Prins, Chaya Chernowin, Thomas Köck, Shirley Apthorp, Enno Poppe, Achim Freyer, Eloain Lovis Hübner, Noa Frenkel and Trond Reinholdtsen are (loosely based on Fernando Pessoa) as diverse as the universe: euphoric, demanding, ironic, fierce, funny, poetic and irritating.
